PART 1
Item 1. |
Business |
Diversified Corporate Resources, Inc. (the "Company," "our," "we," or "us,") is a nationwide human resources and employment services firm, providing staffing solutions in specific professional and technical skill sets to Fortune 500 corporations and other large organizations. We offer three kinds of staffing solutions: permanent placement, specialty/temporary and contract staffing.
Permanent placement is the traditional contingency search, recruiting and placement service, where we obtain a written order to fill a specific job, recruit suitable applicants and facilitate the placement. Our fees range from 15% to 35% of the first year's annual salary of the newly placed employee. We generally offer our clients a 30-day guarantee during which we agree to replace, without additional charge to the client, any newly placed employee who leaves the job. If we are unable to replace the employee, we will generally refund the client's fee, or a prorated portion thereof, depending upon the circumstances.
Specialty/temporary staffing is a service where we place personnel for a relatively short period of time, ranging from several weeks to several months, with clients seeking to satisfy a temporary increase in work volume, offset a sudden loss of personnel or, in some cases, pre-screen for a permanent placement. Specialty/temporary service orders are typically placed by one of our permanent placement clients. Substantially all specialty/temporary personnel placed by us become our employees, where we pay all employment costs, including hourly wages, unemployment taxes, social security taxes and fringe benefits.
Contract staffing is a service where we place primarily engineering/technical and information technology personnel to fill the needs of a client's specific large project, ranging in duration from four weeks to over one year. A typical placement begins with our response to a client's request for proposal (RFP) and culminates in a contract which does not specify a fixed volume of man hours but does contain terms, pricing (usually time and materials) and other performance criteria, including a limited guarantee of an individual's job performance over a relatively short period of time. The contract personnel we recruit and place typically become our employees, where we pay all employment costs, including hourly wages, unemployment taxes, social security taxes and fringe benefits. In some cases due to client specifications, or when certain information technology professionals satisfy applicable requirements, contract personnel is classified as independent contractors.
During 2002, we conducted our business from offices in the following cities: Austin, Texas, Atlanta, Georgia, Chicago, Illinois, Dallas, Texas, Denver, Colorado, Houston, Texas, Kansas City, Missouri, Phoenix, Arizona (the central hub for contract staffing services), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and Raleigh, North Carolina. By the end of the first quarter of 2003, we have closed the offices in Chicago and Kansas City.
Historically, we have provided the three staffing solutions within four core industry verticals: General Engineering and Technology ("General E&T"), Information Technology ("IT"), Biological Technologies and Pharmacies ("Bio/Pharm") and Telecommunications (other than Information Technology-related) ("Telecom"). Following is a breakdown of the relative percentage contributions to our gross revenue in 2002 of each of the three solutions within each of the four core verticals:

We have historically conducted our business through subsidiaries. The Company currently has thirteen subsidiaries, four of which are engaged in providing staffing solutions. Among them, two are relatively recent acquisitions. Datatek Group Corporation ("Datatek"), acquired in 2000, is primarily a contract placement firm providing IT-related staffing solutions to the financial services and health insurance industries. Since 1992, the focus of Datatek has been to provide services such as technical personnel support, consulting services and project management. Texcel Services, Inc. ("Texcel") is engaged in both permanent and contract placement of technical and professional specialists, primarily in the IT and General E&T verticals, as well as Bio/Pharm through its PharmaSearch division. Texcel has been in business since 1985; its market area is in the Northeastern US.
Business Strategy for 2003 and Beyond
As shown in Item 6 - Selected Financial Data, in 2002 we experienced a net loss from operations of $5.9 million. This is the result of the continued severe deterioration during 2002 of economic conditions and resulting reduction across the board in personnel needs, in three of our core verticals: General E&T, IT and, particularly, Telecom, In response, primarily during the fourth quarter of 2002 and first quarter of 2003, management initiated a top-to-bottom review of our business. We focused initially on whether we should exit or continue the level of activity in certain core verticals and the reduction in the number of offices. We analyzed each vertical based on the intermediate and long-term credit outlook of the associated industries, as well as forecasted revenue volatility attributable to cycles within those industries. Above all, we were determined to avoid the type of line of business/vertical concentration that produced the serious liquidity problems we experien ced in 2002.
Management's review culminated in the decision to exit the Telecom core vertical where our revenue was generated primarily from contract staffing services to the RBOC's (Regional Bell Operating Companies). Based on the dramatic slowdown in the laying of new telephone lines, from which our contract staffing in the Telecom vertical drew most of its business, it was clear that this vertical is not likely to meet our expectations for growth or profit margins.
Concurrently, management decided to move aggressively into the healthcare industry by establishing a discreet Healthcare vertical, focusing initially on allied health, nursing (credentialed and non-credentialed) and pharmacists. While we had been engaged in the healthcare industry for some time, it had previously been pursued as an ancillary activity within the Bio/Pharm vertical. Management believes that general demographic trends, forecasted employment trends and the fragmented nature of the healthcare staffing industry favored sustained growth and suggested higher than average margins. As a result, we formed a new operating unit, Magic Healthcare, in January, 2003. We began recruiting professionals from the industry, as well as identifying those individuals within our Company with prior experience in this sector, to specialize in this space and pursue additional continuing education and certification.
We also began to lay the groundwork for a fifth vertical, Privacy Compliance. Management believes that this sector represents a significant opportunity for the Company as issues relating to privacy are growing in their impact, particularly due to the enactment of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act. For example, we believe that the market demand for qualified CPO's (Chief Privacy Officers) will be growing rapidly.
We have also taken steps to cut costs. As of December 31, 2002, we closed two of our ten offices, and reduced the full-time employee count to 179 (of which 47 were salaried employees and 132 are personnel consultants and recruiting office managers paid on a commission basis), compared to 302 full-time employees (72 of which were salaried employees and 230 commission-based) on December 31, 2001. Effective February, 2003, we have also added a key member to our management team, when W. Brown Glenn, Jr., a Director of the Company since August, 2002, was elected President of the Company. Mr. Glenn brings to us a strong background in finance and has led the top-to-bottom management review described above. He replaced Joseph H. Hosmer, who resigned in December 2002, contemporaneously with acquiring the assets of our Mountain unit and our concomitant exit from the Telecom vertical. See Item 1 - Business - Sale of Operating Unit.
Our strategy includes the following additional elements:
Management's efforts during 2002, to streamline our business have been materially affected by an acute lack of liquidity. Throughout most of 2002, the Company remained in default of the loan covenants with General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital"), its senior lender, and operated under a series of forbearance agreements, ultimately costing us in excess of $300,000 in extraordinary fees. In October 2002, while we were negotiating with a new lender, GE Capital demanded additional collateral and threatened an acceleration of the credit facility, which would have forced us to seek bankruptcy protection. This result was averted by the efforts of J. Michael Moore ("Moore"), our Chairman of the Board and Chief Financial Officer, who provided a partial guarantee and such additional collateral by pledging personal assets. In December 2002, we were able to replace GE Capital with a new $4 million senior financing facility with Greenfield Commercial Credit, LLC ("Greenfield"). This new financing facility has significantly reduced our overall cost of capital and has provided us with increased credit availability.
Management believes that the business strategy outlined above will place us in a position to benefit relatively quickly from the upsurge in capital investment and increased personnel needs expected to occur in 2003, particularly after the end of the conflict in Iraq. There is no assurance, however, that such upsurge will occur or that our strategy will be successful.
Sale of Operating Unit
In December, 2002, we sold our Mountain unit to Joseph H. and Sandra Hosmer, the former owners of the unit. The terms of this transaction included the following: (a) an immediate payment to the Company of $572,000 in cash, (b) a future payment to the Company of $78,000 in cash, (c) waiver of all amounts payable by the Company to the Hosmers, with such amounts totaling in excess of $2.1 million, (d) the retention by the Company of all of Mountain's cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable and (e) the cancellation of all warrants to purchase Common Stock held by the Hosmers. Mountain was acquired in 1999, and was primarily a contract placement firm, providing staffing solutions mainly to RBOC's, independent telephone companies and local exchange carriers. In 2002, Mountain's contribution to the Company's operating results included revenues of $8.2 million and an operating loss of $0.1 million.
Competition
The employment services industry is very competitive and fragmented. There are limited barriers to entry and new competitors frequently enter the market. A significant number of our competitors possess substantially greater resources than the Company. Additionally, we face substantial competition for potential clients and for technical and professional personnel from providers of outsourcing services, systems integrators, computer systems consultants, other providers of staffing services, temporary personnel agencies and search firms, which range from large national companies to local employment staffing entities. Large national companies that offer employment staffing services include the appropriate technical services, information technology and permanent placement business units of Adecco SA, CDI Corp, MPS, Inc. and Manpower, Inc. as well as several other privately held firms. Other companies we compete with include Butler International, Inc., General Employment Enterprises, Inc., RCM Technologies, Inc., Professional Staff, PLC, Comforce Corp., Hall Kinion & Associates, Inc., National Technical Systems, Inc., and National TechTeam, Inc. Local employment staffing entities are typically operator-owned, and each market generally has one or more significant such competitors. In addition, we compete with national clerical and light industrial staffing firms, such as Spherion Corporation, that also offer contract staffing services. National and regional consulting firms also offer certain employment staffing services. In addition, we are always exposed to the risk that certain of our current and prospective clients will decide to hire full-time employees who will provide the relevant services internally. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to compete effectively with existing or potential competitors.
Regulation
Most states require permanent placement firms to be licensed in order to conduct business. Such licenses may be revoked upon material noncompliance with state regulations. Any such revocations would have a materially adverse effect on our business within that market. We believe that we are in substantial compliance with all such regulations and possess all licenses necessary to engage in the placement of permanent personnel in the jurisdictions in which we do business. Various government agencies have advocated proposals from time to time to license or regulate the placement of temporary personnel. We do not believe that such proposals, if enacted, would have a material adverse effect on our business.
Employees
In addition to the non-permanent and contract personnel from time to time employed by our Company for placement with clients, we had 179 full-time employees as of December 31, 2002. Of these employees, 132 were personnel consultants and office managers paid on a commission basis and 47 were administrative and executive salaried employees. We consider our relations with our employees to be good and the overall morale within our organization to be high.
Item 2. |
Properties |
The Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries currently lease approximately 34,000 square feet in Dallas, Texas; the term of this lease is ten years. We also lease approximately 21,000 square feet in Houston, Texas; 3,200 square feet in Austin, Texas; 3,600 square feet in Kansas City, Missouri; 6,400 square feet in Atlanta, Georgia; 5,200 square feet in Chicago, Illinois; 11,575 square feet in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania; 6,500 square feet in Denver Colorado; 6,300 square feet in Raleigh, North Carolina; and 3,400 square feet in Phoenix, Arizona. Such leases generally range from three to five years. The current cost of all of our office leases is approximately $1.7 million per annum. At this time, we are not occupying the offices in Chicago or Kansas City, and we are attempting to sublease both of these offices.
We believe that all of our present facilities are adequate for our current needs and that additional space is available for future expansion upon acceptable terms.
Item 3. |
Legal Proceedings |
In 1996, Ditto Properties Company ("DPC") filed suit against DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc. ("L.P. No. 2"), which is controlled by Moore. Moore and the Company were initially named as garnishees in the lawsuit (the "Ditto Litigation") with respect to 899,200 shares (the "LP Shares") of common stock of the Company which were the subject matter of a series of transactions in 1993 which ultimately resulted in the LP Shares being conveyed by DPC to L.P. No. 2. Subsequent to the filing of the litigation by DPC, Moore and the Company were also added as defendants in such proceedings, and F. Scott Otey ("Otey") and Jeffery Loadman ("Loadman") intervened as parties to the Ditto Litigation. Due to recently granted motions for summary judgment in favor of L.P. No. 2, Moore and the Company, neither Otey nor Loadman remain as parties to the Ditto Litigation.
In January 2003, L.P. No. 2 filed for protection from its creditors under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. In connection with such filing, the Ditto Litigation proceedings were transferred to United States Bankruptcy Court for the Northern District of Texas, Dallas Division (Case No. 03-31053-SAF-11), and this lawsuit is currently pending in such court. We do not believe that the bankruptcy filing of L.P. No. 2 will have an adverse effect upon the Company, materially dramatically alter our litigation strategy in these proceedings. A hearing date of April 4, 2003 is set with respect to the various motions for summary judgment which have been filed by Moore and the Company. Because both Moore and the Company have damage clams pending against DPC and Ditto, regardless of whether or not Moore and the Company receive favorable rulings in connection with these motions for summary judgment, the trial in this case is anticipated to begin in late May, 2003. No amount of loss reserves has been established by the Company with respect to the Ditto Litigation because, based on discussions with counsel, management does not believe that the Ditto Litigation will adversely impact the Company's financial condition.
For more information concerning the Ditto Litigation, and the actions taken by the Company in connection with indemnifying officers and directors of the Company, see Item 1, Part II of our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2002, such disclosure is hereby incorporated by reference.
In the past, we have incurred legal fees on our own behalf and have funded certain of the legal fees and expenses of Moore and L.P. No. 2 in connection with the Ditto Litigation. In 2001, the Board of Directors of the Company approved the payment of up to $250,000 (herein referred to as the "JMM Cap") towards Moore's legal fees and expenses anticipated to be incurred by Moore and related parties in connection with the Ditto Litigation. In July 2002, our Board of Directors determined that approximately $101,000 of legal services rendered by counsel for Moore and related parties benefited the Company, directly or indirectly, and the amounts previously allocated to the JMM Cap were reduced by such amount. Through March 1, 2003, we have expended approximately $177,000 in connection with the JMM Cap on behalf of Moore in connection with the Ditto Litigation and related matters.
We are also involved in certain other litigation and disputes not noted. With respect to these other matters, management believes the claims against us are without merit, or has concluded that the ultimate resolution of such will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

As of the date of this report, we had approximately 334 holders of record of Common Stock. While we know that a number of beneficial owners of our Common Stock hold shares in street name, no estimate has been made as to the number of shareholders owning stock of the Company in street name.
We have not paid any cash dividends on our Common Stock since our inception. We expect that we will retain all available earnings generated by our operations for the development and growth of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Any future determination as to dividend policy will be made at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend on a number of factors, including the future earnings, capital requirements, financial condition and future prospects of the Company, and such other factors as the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

In October 2002, in consideration of his agreement to issue a partial guarantee of up $900,000 of the Company's obligations under the debt facility from GE Capital (the "GE Facility") the Board of Directors granted to Moore warrants or options to purchase 3.6 million shares of common Stock, in three equal tranches, at the time representing approximately 51% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock calculated on a fully diluted basis. Subsequently, in February 2003, Moore and the Company modified the grant whereby Moore will have been granted warrants to purchase 2,700,000 shares of Common Stock at the exercise prices of $0.15 for 900,000 shares of Common Stock, $0.16 for 900,000 shares of Common Stock, and $0.19 for 900,000 shares of Common Stock, with Moore obligated to purchase at least 900,000 shares of Common Stock covered by these warrants in 2003. Pursuant to the rules of AMEX, the listing of the shares underlying these warrants requires shareholder approval. A ccordingly, we plan to submit this matter to a vote of the shareholders at the 2003 annual meeting contemplated for May 2003. Neither the issuance of these warrants, nor the shares to be issued upon exercise of these warrants, has been registered under the Securities Act. The issuance was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The warrants have been issued pursuant to a privately negotiated transaction without solicitation or advertising with an individual who is a "sophisticated investor" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and who had access to all the information concerning our Company that he needed to make an informed decision with respect the transactions involved, the Company, the issuance of these warrants, and the shares to be issued upon exercise of these warrants. The documents to evidence these warrants and shares will bear a legend with respect to the securities restrictions on transfer.
In November 2002, in consideration for services provided by this turnaround management consulting company in connection with managing our relationship with GE Capital through the most recent forbearance and replacing the GE Facility with the Greenfield line of credit, we entered into an agreement with The Navarro Group ("TNG") pursuant to which we agreed to issue to TNG warrants to purchase approximately 300,000 shares of Common Stock at $0.30 per share, such warrants to expire on November 1, 2006. Neither the issuance of these warrants, nor the shares to be issued upon exercise of these warrants, has been registered under the Securities Act. The issuance was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The agreement referred to above was a privately negotiated transaction without solicitation or advertising with a consulting firm that was a "sophisticated investor" within the meaning of the Securities Act that had access to all the information concerning ou r Company that it needed to make an informed decision with respect to the transaction involved, the Company, the issuance of these warrants, and the shares to be issued upon exercise of these warrants. The documents to evidence these warrants and shares will bear a legend with respect to the securities restrictions on transfer.
Effective December 31, 2002, in connection with the restructuring of our obligations to the former owners of Texcel, we granted warrants to purchase 7,357 shares, 3,956 shares and 2,007 shares, respectively, to Thomas W. Rinaldi, Gary E. Kane and Paul J. Cornely, respectively. These warrants expire on December 1, 2006 and have an exercise price of $.27 per share. Contemporaneously, the exercise price of the 86,680 warrants held by these persons prior to 2003, was adjusted from $.57 per share to $.27 per share. Neither the issuance of these warrants, nor the shares to be issued upon exercise of these warrants, has been registered under the Securities Act. The issuance was exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. The agreement referred to above was a privately negotiated transaction without solicitation or advertising with a consulting firm that was a "sophisticated investor" within the meaning of the Securities Act that had access to all the information c oncerning our Company that it needed to make an informed decision with respect the transaction involved, the Company, the issuance of these warrants, and the shares to be issued upon exercise of these warrants. The documents to evidence these warrants and shares will bear a legend with respect to the securities restrictions on transfer.
During February 2003, the Board of Directors approved the issuance of stock options to various managers and employees of the Company to purchase 920,000 shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $.24 per share. These shares were granted under the previously approved Amended and Restated 1996 Non-qualified Stock Option Plan and the 1998 Non-Qualified Employee Stock Option Plan, with a three year vesting requirement. Concurrent with that grant, the Board of Directors approved an exchange plan for current employees and non-employee directors holding options under either the 1996 or 1998 plans whereby holders of any options exercisable on April 1, 2003 with exercise prices above $2.50 per share would be offered the opportunity to exchange those options on a 1 for 5 ratio (meaning that for every 100 exchanged the holder would receive 20) at the exercise price of $.24 per share.

2002 compared with 2001
The year ended December 31, 2002 proved to be a continuation of the depressed business cycle we experienced in 2001. During this cycle, more employment and staffing companies went out of business than in the previous decade. Our overriding goal for 2002 has been to survive this cycle and prepare the Company for the eventual upturn in the economy and, by extension, our business activity.
For the year 2002, net service revenue decreased $19.8 million, or 28%, to $51.8 million as compared to $71.6 million for the previous year. As noted in the table above, revenue derived from contract placement and specialty placements decreased $12.3 million or 23%, and permanent placement revenue decreased $7.5 million, or 41% as a result of the continuing effect of general hiring freezes and staff reductions implemented by our customers. We continue to focus our efforts on increasing the mix of contract revenue business versus permanent/direct placement. In 2002, the percentage of contract placement revenues to total revenues had risen to 79% versus 75% in 2001. We are focusing on the development of our contract placement revenues because, while somewhat lower in margin, they are recurring and thus more predictable and easier to forecast.
For the year 2002, gross margin decreased by $11.3 million, or 39%, to $17.7 million as compared to $29.0 million in the previous year. Overall gross margin, as a percentage of net service revenue, declined to 34%, as compared with 40% in the previous year period, due primarily, to a greater emphasis on contract placement type business.
Operating expenses amounted to $20.1 million for 2002 a decrease of $12.6 million, or 39%, as compared to the previous year. Included in operating expenses was $8.9 million of variable sales expenses, a decline of $6.1 million due primarily to the lower commission structure associated with contract placement revenues. In addition, general and administrative expenses declined by $5.4 million, or 36%, as compared to the previous year. Cost cutting initiatives implemented throughout 2001 and 2002 involving a review of our business processes, organizational structure and level of our permanent workforce, accounted for the decrease in general and administrative expenses. Depreciation and amortization expense amounted to $1.1 million as compared to $1.9 million in the previous year period. The decrease is due to the adoption of the Financial Accounting Standards Board, SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, which provides that certain goodwill and intangibles no longer be amortized. As part of the adoption of SFAS 142, during the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company completed its evaluation of the carrying value of its intangible assets and determined that no impairment had occurred. Also, in 2002, the Company recorded a charge for restructuring and severance of $0.4 million as compared to $0.8 million in the previous year period, of which approximately $0.3 million was related to the resignation of our former President.
For the year 2002, net interest expense increased by $0.4 million (from $1.117 million to $1.550 million) as compared to the previous year. Included in the interest expense for 2002 was $0.4 million related to default wavier fees paid to GE Capital, $0.2 million related to securing financing with our current lender, and $0.1 million associated with the issuance of warrants to Moore as consideration for his partial guarantee of the Company's obligations. For the year 2001, included in the interest expense was $0.3 million related to default wavier fees and the write-off of previously deferred commitment fees as a result of the events of default, and $0.1 million associated with the issuance of warrants to the former owners of Texcel and Mountain. The remaining interest expense is associated with borrowings on our line of credit and deferred payment obligations related to our acquisitions.
For the year 2002, we reported a loss of $2.0 million on the sale of our Mountain operations in December 2002. It was anticipated that the evaluation of the carrying amount of goodwill related to our Mountain operations would have resulted in an impairment expense which would have exceeded the realized loss on the sale.
In 2002, we reported a net loss before income taxes of $6.0 million, as compared to net loss before income taxes of $4.9 million in the previous year. The loss on the sale of the Mountain operations noted above, contributed to the change in net loss before income taxes.
We reported an income tax benefit of $0 as compared to income tax benefit of $0.9 million for the previous year. In addition, at December 31, 2002, the Company has had a net operating loss carry forward of $7.0 million which it will use to offset future tax expense.
As a result of the items discussed above, we reported a $5.971 million net loss for the year ended December 31, 2002 as compared to a net loss of $3.978 million for the previous year.
2001 Compared with 2000
For the year ended December 31, 2001, net service revenue decreased $9.4 million, or 12%, to $71.6 million as compared to $81.0 million for the previous year. As noted in the table above, revenue derived from contract and specialty placements increased $3.9 million. Approximately $2.2 million of the increase in revenue derived from contract and specialty placements was attributable to the inclusion of the results of Datatek, which was acquired in March 2000. The balance of the growth in revenue from contract and specialty placements of $1.7 million, or 3%, was attributable to increased contract placements with existing customers and the addition of new customers. Permanent placement revenue decreased $13.3 million, or 42% as a result of the continuing effect of hiring freezes and staff reductions implemented by our customers due to the softening of the economy. Contract placement and specialty services revenue accounted for 75% of revenue for the year ended December 31, 2001, up fr om 61% for the previous year.
For the year ended December 31, 2001, gross margin decreased by $13.1 million, or 31%, to $29.0 million as compared to $42.1 million in the previous year. All of the absolute decrease in gross margin dollars is due to the decline in permanent placement revenues. As a percentage of contract and specialty placement revenue, the gross margin derived from contract and specialty placements for the year ended December 31, 2001 was 20%, down one percentage point as compared to the previous year.
Operating expenses amounted to $32.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001; a decrease of $5.9 million as compared to the previous year. Included in operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $14.9 million of variable sales expenses, which were down $6.3 million as compared to the previous year period due to the decline in permanent placement revenue. In addition, for the year ended December 31, 2001, general and administrative expenses amounted to $15.1 million. Included in this amount is $0.6 million of excess rent paid during the year, principally for space at the Company's Dallas office. The Company has entered into new lease agreements effective January 1, 2002, which result in the elimination of this incremental rent expense going forward. Also included in general and administrative expense for 2001 was approximately $0.4 million in legal costs associated with the Ditto matter. General and administrative expenses in 2000 were $15.6 million. Depreciation an d amortization expense amounted to $1.9 million as compared to $1.7 million in the previous year period. This increase is due to amortization expense related to our acquisitions. Also during the year ended December 31, 2001, we recorded a $0.8 million charge for restructuring, severance and asset write-offs. Approximately $0.3 million of this charge was related to the resignation of our former president, and $0.2 million was related to the write-off of leasehold improvements and the establishment of a reserve for future rents for facilities no longer occupied.
For the year ended December 31, 2001, net interest expense was $1.1 million, an increase of $0.5 million as compared to the previous year. Included in the interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $0. 3 million related to default wavier fees and the write-off of previously deferred commitment fees as a result of the events of default, and $0.1 million associated with the issuance of warrants to the former owners of Texcel and Mountain. The remaining interest expense is associated with borrowings on our line of credit and deferred payment obligations related to our acquisitions.
For the year ended December 31, 2001, we reported a net loss before taxes of $4.9 million, as compared to net income before taxes of $3.0 million in the previous year. The reduction in revenue from permanent placements and the restructuring and severance costs noted above, contributed to the change in net income before taxes.
During for the year ended December 31, 2001, we reported an income tax benefit of $0.9 million as compared to income tax expense of $1.2 million for the previous year period. In addition, at December 31, 2001, the Company has a net operating loss carry forward of $1.2 million which it will use to offset future tax expense.
As a result of the items discussed above, we reported a $4.0 million net loss for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to net income of $1.7 million for the previous year.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Prior to December 24, 2002, our working capital financing was provided by GE Capital pursuant to a secured line of credit agreement, the GE Facility. During much of 2002, we were not in compliance with the terms of the GE Facility and have entered into a series of forbearance agreements calling for the payment of default fees and progressively reducing the amount available under the facility.
On December 24, 2002, we entered into a secured line of credit agreement with Greenfield (the "Greenfield Facility"), and repaid in full the amounts owed under the GE Facility. The Greenfield Facility is for a one-year term, pursuant to which the Company has the right to borrow up to $4.0 million on a revolving basis. All of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are pledged to secure this facility, and most of these subsidiaries have guaranteed the repayment of the Company's obligations thereunder. At March 25, 2003, the net borrowing availability under the Greenfield Facility was approximately $5,000. Under the terms and conditions of the Greenfield Facility, all cash receipts deposited in our lock boxes are swept daily. This procedure, combined with the Company's policy of maintaining zero balance operating accounts, results in the Company reporting a balance of "Obligations not liquidated because of outstanding checks" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.< /P>
In connection with the Greenfield Facility, Moore executed a Validity Guaranty (the "JMM Guaranty"). Under the JMM Guaranty, Moore is obligated to repay the loan in the event and to the extent that the Company engages in any inappropriate activities related to the facility. As an inducement to Moore's execution of the JMM Guaranty, we agreed to indemnify Moore for amounts paid by him under the JMM Guaranty due to actions taken by others within the Company of which he had no knowledge.
Another condition of the Greenfield Facility was the execution of a subordination agreement by two groups of holders of unsecured acquisition debt of the Company. The holders of the debt payable to the former owners of the business now operated by Datatek did execute a Subordination Agreement in December, 2002. Subsequently, in the first quarter of 2003, the other group, the holders of the debt payable to the former owners of the business now operated by Texcel, a subsidiary of the Company which was acquired in October, 1998, has also executed a Subordination Agreement.
Effective January 1, 2003, we entered into an Amended and Restated Forbearance and Amendment Agreements with the prior owners of Texcel, which restructured a series of obligations by the Company to such prior owners and cured a default thereunder. Under the agreements, our obligation to repay the debt was deferred to June 30, 2004, with interest payable monthly beginning on March 15, 2003, and principal payable only if allowed under the terms of the Greenfield Facility.
Similarly, effective January 1, 2003, we entered into the Second Amendment to Agreements with the prior owners of Datatek, which restructured a series of obligations by the Company to such prior owners and cured a default thereunder. Under the agreement, our obligation to pay a lump sum on January 1, 2003 is spread over the next twelve months and is subject to the terms of the Greenfield Facility. The prior owners, who have been managing the affairs of Datatek since its acquisition by the Company, will also receive certain commissions based on the Datatek's pre-tax earnings in lieu of the percentage of revenues provided for in the prior agreements.
Because of Greenfield Facility, the Company now has a source of liquidity with significantly greater flexibility in terms of the reserves required to be subtracted by the Company against its accounts receivable in order to compute the credit availability. The restructuring of the obligation to the prior owners of Texcel and Datatek allows us to spread payments over a longer period of time, at no appreciable additional carrying costs, and to tie commissions to net income rather than gross revenues. These features enhance our immediate liquidity and may make additional working capital available for the growth of our business.
Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement effective January 8, 1999, by and among the Company, Compass Bank (the "Bank"), DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc. (L.P. No. 2), and Moore, we are obligated to purchase from the Bank two promissory notes (the "Notes") issued to the Bank by LP No.2. We have been notified that an entity affiliated with Moore has entered into a purchase agreement with the Bank that, upon its consummation, will eliminate the Company's obligation to the Bank. On November 13, 2002, when the amount payable to the Bank pursuant to the Notes was approximately $270,000, L.P. No. 2 had filed for bankruptcy and the Bank has declared the Notes in default. The Notes have been secured by 168,500 shares of the Company's common stock pledged to the Bank by L.P. No. 2 and Moore. Based on the market price of the Common Stock on November 13, 2002, the unsecured balance of the liability to the Bank by all parties involved was approximately $252,000. The Company does not have the funds available t o purchase the Notes if required to do so under the terms of the Purchase Agreement and there is no assurance that the aforementioned purchase of the Notes by Moore will take place. As the Notes are guaranteed by Moore, we believe, based upon financial information provided by Moore, that Moore has the financial ability to satisfy the Notes.
For the year ended December 31, 2002, cash provided by operating activities approximated $0.4 million, the sale of Mountain provided $0.6 million and net short term borrowings provided $0.2 million. The cash generated was used to reduce obligations not liquidated because of outstanding checks by $0.5 million, to pay principal payments on long term debt of $0.4 million and for capital expenditures approximating $0.3 million.
Notwithstanding the greater availability of credit under the Greenfield Facility, compared to the GE Facility, and the short-term cash flow benefits of restructuring of the Company's acquisition debt, we continue to face the risks associated with limited capital resources which might be insufficient to weather a temporary contraction in revenue or an unfavorable outcome of litigation. We are, of course, continuing to evaluate various financing and restructuring strategies to identify new financing options in connection with our capital requirements and acquisition debt obligations. We can provide no assurance that we will be successful in implementing the changes necessary to accomplish these objectives, or if we are successful, that the changes will improve our cash flow and liquidity.
These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern.
Inflation has not had a significant effect on our operating results.
Significant Accounting Policies
Revenue Recognition and Cost of Services
Fees for placement of permanent personnel are recognized as income at the time the applicant accepts employment. A provision is made for estimated losses in realization of such fees (principally due to applicants not commencing employment, or not remaining in employment for the guaranteed period). Revenues from specialty services and contract placements are recognized upon performance of services. Direct cost of contract placement and specialty services consists of direct wages and related payroll taxes paid to non-permanent personnel.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires the following three-step approach for assessing and recognizing the impairment of long-lived assets: (1) consider whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets are present; (2) if indicators of impairment are present, determine whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the assets in question is less than their carrying amount; and (3) if less, recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their respective fair values. In addition, SFAS No. 144 provides more guidance on estimating cash flows when performing a recoverability test, requires that a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale (such as abandoned) be classified as "held and used" until it is disposed of, and establishes more restrictive criteria to classify an asset as "held for sale ". The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on our financial statements since it retained the fundamental provisions of SFAS No, 121, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," related to the recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be "held and used."
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the fair value is the objective for the initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This statement will impact the timing of our recognition of liabilities for costs associat ed with exit or disposal activities.
Item 7A. |
Qualitative and Quantitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
The Company is exposed to market risks from fluctuations in interest rates and the effects of those fluctuations on the earnings of its cash equivalent short-term investments; as well as interest expense on line of credit borrowings. Assuming interest rates increased by 200 basis points (2%) above the interest rate at December 31, 2002, on an annualized basis interest expense would increase by approximately $0.1 million on the outstanding line of credit borrowings of $3.8 million at December 31, 2002.

DIVERSIFIED CORPORATE RESOURCES, INC.
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Diversified Corporate Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the years then ended. These consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of Diversified Corporate Resources, Inc. and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. As shown in the consolidated financial statements, the Company incurred a net loss of $5,971,000 during the year ended December 31, 2002, and, as of that date, had a working capital deficiency of $3,108,000. Those conditions raise substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are described in Note 2, "Liquidity and Management Plans". The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

DIVERSIFIED CORPORATE RESOURCES, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The consolidated financial statements include the operations of Diversified Corporate Resources, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries (the "Company", "our", "we" or "us"). All inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Nature of Operations
The Company is a Texas corporation and is engaged, through our subsidiaries, in the permanent, specialty and contract placement of personnel in various industries. We currently operate offices in the following locations:
Arizona |
Phoenix |
Colorado |
Denver |
Georgia |
Atlanta |
North Carolina |
Raleigh |
Pennsylvania |
Philadelphia |
Texas |
Dallas/Fort Worth, Houston and Austin |
The offices are responsible for marketing to clients, recruitment of personnel, operations, local advertising, initial customer credit evaluation and customer cash collection follow-up. Our executive offices, located in Dallas, Texas, provide corporate governess, and risk management, as well as certain other accounting and administrative services for our offices.
Trade Accounts Recievable
Trade accounts receivable are reported in the consolidated balance sheet at the outstanding principal adjusted for any chargeoffs. An allowance for doubtful accounts is recognized by management based upon a review of specific customer balances, historical losses and general economic conditions.
Revenue Recognition and Cost of Services
Fees for placement of permanent personnel are recognized as income at the time the applicant accepts employment. A provision is made for estimated losses in realization of such fees (principally due to applicants not commencing employment, or not remaining in employment for the guaranteed period). Revenues from specialty services and contract placements are recognized upon performance of services. Direct cost of contract placement and specialty services consists of direct wages and related payroll taxes paid to non-permanent personnel. Accounts receivable at December 31, 2002 and 2001 include approximately $206,000 and $80,000, respectively, of unbilled receivables that were billed in 2003 and 2002.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
We consider all highly liquid investment instruments purchased with remaining maturities of three months or less to be cash equivalents.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
At December 31, 2002 and 2001, our financial instruments consisted of cash and cash equivalents, notes receivable from related parties, line of credit borrowings and long-term debt. We believe that the recorded values of cash and cash equivalents approximate fair value due to the short term nature of these instruments. We believe that the recorded values of notes receivable from related parties approximate fair value due to the value of the collateral for those receivables. We believe that the recorded value of the line of credit borrowings and long-term debt approximate fair value due to our ability to obtain such borrowings at comparable interest rates.
Obligations not liquidated because of outstanding checks
Under the terms and conditions of our revolving credit facility, all cash receipts deposited in our lock boxes are swept by our lender daily. This procedure, combined with our policy of maintaining a zero balance in the operating account results in the Company reporting a balance of obligations not liquidated because of outstanding checks.
Property and Equipment
Property and equipment are recorded at cost. Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets or the related lease terms, if applicable, whichever is shorter. Upon retirement or sale, the cost and related accumulated depreciation and amortization are removed from the accounts and any resulting gains or losses are included in the consolidated statement of operations. Maintenance and repair costs are charged to expense as incurred. The estimated useful life of each class of asset is 5 years.
Advertising Costs
Advertising costs are expensed as incurred. For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, advertising expenses amounted to approximately $364,000, $519,000 and $707,000, respectively.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share ("EPS") was determined by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the year. Diluted EPS includes these shares plus common stock equivalents outstanding during the year. (Common stock equivalents are excluded if the effects of inclusion are anti-dilutive.)
Following is a reconciliation of the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year for basic and diluted EPS:

Income Taxes
We present income taxes pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109. "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("FAS 109"). FAS 109 uses an asset and liability approach to account for income taxes, wherein, deferred taxes are provided for book and tax basis differences for assets and liabilities. In the event differences between the financial reporting basis and the tax basis of our assets and liabilities result in deferred tax assets, an evaluation of the profitability of being able to realize the future benefits indicated by such assets is required. A valuation allowance is provided for a portion or all of the deferred tax assets when there is sufficient uncertainty regarding our ability to recognize the benefits of the assets in future years. Our Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.
Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year balances to conform to the current year presentation, the most significant of which is that in 2000, variable selling expenses were included in cost of services.
Intangibles
Intangibles consist of covenants not to compete and goodwill (excess of purchase price over fair value of net assets acquired) arising from business combinations and in 2001 and 2000 were being amortized on a straight-line basis over periods ranging from 3 to 20 years based on their estimated useful lives or contract terms. In 2002, the Company adopted the provisions of SFAS 142, which requires that goodwill and certain intangibles no longer be amortized. As part of the adoption of SFAS 142, during the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company completed its evaluation of the carrying value of its intangible assets and determined that no impairment had occurred.
Stock Based Compensation
We account for Stock Based Compensation to employees and directors under the provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and related interpretations rather than the fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation". No stock-based employee compensation expense for stock options was reflected in net income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, as all stock options granted had an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant.
The following table illustrates the effect on net income and earnings per share as if the fair value method had been applied to all outstanding options:

Recently Issued Accounting Standards
Effective January 1, 2002, we adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires the following three-step approach for assessing and recognizing the impairment of long-lived assets: (1) consider whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets are present; (2) if indicators of impairment are present, determine whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the assets in question is less than their carrying amount; and (3) if less, recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their respective fair values. In addition, SFAS No. 144 provides more guidance on estimating cash flows when performing a recoverability test, requires that a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale (such as abandoned) be classified as "held and used" until it is disposed of, and establishes more restrictive criteria to classify an asset as "held for sale ". The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on our financial statements since it retained the fundamental provisions of SFAS No, 121, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," related to the recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be "held and used."
In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that the fair value is the objective for the initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This statement will impact the timing of our recognition of liabilities for costs associat ed with exit or disposal activities.
2. Liquidity and Management Plans
Prior to December 24, 2002, our working capital financing was provided by General Electric Capital Corporation ("GE Capital") pursuant to a secured line of credit agreement (the "GE facility") with GE Capital. During much of 2002, we were not in compliance with the terms of the GE Facility.
On December 24, 2002, we finalized a secured line of credit agreement with Greenfield (the "Greenfield Facility"), and in the process we paid in full the amounts owed under the GE Facility. The Greenfield Facility is for a one-year term, pursuant to which the Company has the right to borrow up to $4.0 million for the entire term of the Greenfield facility. All of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are pledged to secure this debt obligation, and most of these subsidiaries have guaranteed the repayment of the Company's debt obligation to Greenfield. At December 31, 2002, the net borrowing availability under the Greenfield Facility was approximately $15,000. Under the terms and conditions of the Greenfield Facility, all cash receipts deposited in our lock boxes are swept by Greenfield daily. This procedure, combined with the Company's policy of maintaining zero balance operating accounts, results in the Company reporting a balance of "obligations not liquidated because of outs tanding checks" in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet.
In connection with the Greenfield Facility, Greenfield required that J. Michael Moore, our CEO and Chairman ("Moore") execute a Validity Guaranty (the "JMM Guaranty"). The JMM Guaranty basically obligates Moore to repay the Greenfield loan in the event and to the extent that the Company engages in any inappropriate activities related to the Greenfield financing. As the result of Moore executing the JMM Guaranty, our Board of Directors has previously indicated that it is their intent to indemnify Moore, against actions taken by others in the organization with which he had no knowledge.
In addition, another condition to the closing of the Greenfield loan transaction was the execution of a Subordination Agreement by certain unsecured debt holders of the Company. With respect to holders who did not execute such a document, the Company is precluded from making any interest or debt payments to such holders without first obtaining the written consent of Greenfield. With respect to those debt holders who did execute such a document, the Company is precluded form making principal payments to them unless and to the extent that the Company has available borrowing capacity in excess of a minimum of $1,000,000.
The holders of the debt payable to the former owners of the business now operated by Datatek Group Corporation ("Datatek"), a subsidiary of the Company which was acquired in March, 2000, did execute the required document in December, 2002. Since such time, the holders of the debt payable to the former owners of the business now operated by Texcel Services, Inc. ("Texcel"), a subsidiary of the Company which was acquired in October, 1998, have now executed the required Subordination Agreement with Greenfield.
At various times in 2002 and to date in 2003, we were or have been in default of our obligations to make debt payments to the former owners of Datatek, Texcel and Mountain. At this time, however, the Company is not in default with respect to any of the amounts still payable to the former owners of Datatek and Texcel. Due to the sale transaction in December 2002, no amounts are payable by the Company in connection with the Company's Mountain acquisition in 1999 (see Item 1 of this Form 10-K for more information about the disposition of Mountain). As of February 28, 2003, we owed approximately $330,000 to the former owners of Datatek, and approximately $747,000 (plus accrued and unpaid interest), to the former owners of Texcel.
Pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement effective January 8, 1999, by and among the Company, Compass Bank (the "Bank"), DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc. (L.P. No. 2), J. Michael Moore ("Mr. Moore"), our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, the Company is obligated to purchase from the Bank two promissory notes (the "Notes") issued to the Bank by LP No.2. We have been notified that an entity affiliated with Mr. Moore has entered into a purchase agreement with the Bank that upon completion will eliminate the Company's obligation to the Bank. As of November 13, 2002, the amount payable to the Bank pursuant to the Notes was approximately $270,000. The Notes are currently secured by 168,500 shares of the Company's common stock pledged to the Bank by L.P. No. 2 and or Mr. Moore. Based on the current market price of the Company's common stock on November 13, 2002, the unsecured balance of the liability to the Bank by all parties involved is approximately $252,000. While there can be no assurance that the a forementioned purchase of the Notes will be successful, the Company does not have the funds available to purchase the Notes if required to do so under the terms of the Purchase Agreement. As the Notes are guaranteed by Mr. Moore, we believe, based upon financial information provided by Mr. Moore, that Mr. Moore has the financial ability to satisfy the Notes.
We are continuing to evaluate various financing and restructuring strategies to maximize shareholder value and to provide assistance to us in pursuing alternative financing options in connection with our capital requirements and acquisition debt obligations. We can provide no assurance that we will be successful in implementing the changes necessary to accomplish these objectives, or if we are successful, that the changes will improve our cash flow and liquidity.
These factors, among others, indicate that the Company may be unable to continue as a going concern.
We can provide no assurance that we will be successful in implementing the changes necessary to accomplish these objectives, or if we are successful, that the changes will improve our cash flow and liquidity.

6. Line of Credit and Long-Term Debt:
On May 18, 2000, we entered into a three-year revolving line of credit agreement with General Electric Capital Corporation (the "GE facility"). The agreement permits borrowings up to $15,000,000. Upon the closing of this facility, we borrowed $3,800,000 and repaid, in its entirety, the outstanding borrowings under our previous revolving credit facility. The borrowings are collateralized by our accounts receivable and other assets and are based upon a borrowing base as defined in the agreement.
On December 24, 2002, we finalized a secured line of credit agreement with Greenfield (the "Greenfield Facility"), and in the process we paid in full the amounts owed under the GE Facility. The Greenfield Facility is for a one-year term, pursuant to which the Company has the right to borrow up to $4.0 million for the entire term of the Greenfield facility. All of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries are pledged to secure this debt obligation, and most of these subsidiaries have guaranteed the repayment of the Company's debt obligation to Greenfield. At December 31, 2002 the net borrowing availability under the Greenfield Facility was approximately $15,000.
Under the terms of the agreement with Greenfield, outstanding loan balances bear interest at the bank's index rate plus 8%. Interest is payable monthly. The weighted average interest rate (excluding forbearance and other fees) on the borrowings under the GE facility was 7.6% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The weighted average interest rate (including forbearance and other fees) on the borrowings under the GE facility was 18.0% for the year ended December 31, 2002.

7. Business Acquisitions
Texcel, Inc. and Texcel Technical Services, Inc.:
On October 8, 1998, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets and assumed certain liabilities of Texcel, Inc. and Texcel Technical Services, Inc. (collectively "Texcel"). The purchase price consisted of $1.8 million in cash; 100,000 shares of our common stock valued at $4.8125 per share (which was the market value of the stock at the date the acquisition was announced less a discount for the restrictive nature of the stock); and three annual deferred payments of $930,000 two of which were paid October 1, 1999 and 2000. As noted above in Footnote No. 2, Liquidity and Management Plans, the Company did not make the required minimum payment which was due on October 1, 2001. The Company has entered into agreements with the former owners of Texcel pursuant to which our payment obligations have been deferred subject to the Company timely funding the installment obligations payable to them. At this time, the Company is in compliance with the terms of such agreements with the former owner s of Texcel.
The Texcel acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. The results of Texcel are included in the statement of operations beginning October 1, 1998. The contingent portion of the deferred payments, as defined in the purchase agreement for 1999, 2000 and 2001 were $250,000, $246,000 and $297,000, respectively, and were recorded as additions to goodwill.
Mountain, Ltd.:
On August 6, 1999, we completed the acquisition of all of the outstanding stock of Mountain Ltd. ("Mountain"). The purchase price consisted of approximately $2,430 in cash; 75,000 shares of our common stock, valued at $3.705 per share (which was the market value of the stock at the date the acquisition was announced less a discount for the restrictive nature of the stock); and three deferred payments of approximately $1,178,000 each, the first of which was paid September 30, 2000. The remaining payments are due October 1, 2001 and 2002, respectively.
The Mountain acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. The results of Mountain are included in the statement of operations beginning August 6, 1999. The contingent deferred payments (approximately $589,000 each) are recorded as goodwill when earned. The contingent portion of the deferred payments for fiscal 2001 and 2000 of approximately $589,000, each, were earned and were recorded as additional goodwill. During 2000, we issued 15,000 shares of our Common Stock at $2.50 per share as additional acquisition cost related to the Mountain acquisition.
Effective December 20, 2002, we sold the operations of Mountain to the former owners. The terms of this sale transaction included the following: (a) $572,000 paid to the Company in cash, (b) $78,000 to be paid to the Company in cash in the future, (c) waiver of all amounts payable by the Company to the former owners, with such amount totaling approximately $2.1 million, and (d) the retention by the Company of all of Mountain's cash, accounts receivable, and accounts payable. The net loss incurred on the sale was approximately $2 million. In 2002, Mountain's contribution to the Company's operating results included revenues of $8.2 million, and an operating loss of $0.1 million.
Datatek Corporation:
In March 2000, we completed the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of Datatek Corporation ("Datatek"). The purchase price consisted of $3 million in cash, which was paid at closing; 75,000 shares of our common stock valued at $2.50 per share (which was the market value of the stock at the date the acquisition was announced less a discount for the restrictive nature of the stock); and four installment payments, payable on January 1 of each of the years 2001 through 2004, in the anticipated amount of $171,000 each. As noted above in Footnote No. 2, "Liquidity and Management Plans," the Company did not make the required minimum payment which was due on January 1, 2002. The Company has entered into agreements with the former owners of Datatek pursuant to which our payment obligations have been deferred subject to the Company timely funding the installment obligations payable to them.
In addition, contingent payments will be payable on April 15 of each of the years 2001 through 2005, in an amount equal to twenty-five percent (25%) of the increased profits, as defined, of the business acquired from Datatek. We incurred acquisition costs totaling $320,000 in connection with the acquisition, including the issuance of 12,000 shares of our common stock at $2.50 per share.
The Datatek acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method. The results of Datatek are included in the statement of operations beginning March 6, 2000. Contingent payments of approximately $36,000 in 2000 and $72,000 in 2002 have been recorded as goodwill.
8. Stock Based Compensation
Under provisions of the Company's 1998 and 1996 Amended and Restated Nonqualified Stock Option Plans (the "Plans"), options to purchase an aggregate of 1,300,000 shares of our common stock may be granted to key personnel of the Company. Options may be granted for a term of up to ten years to purchase common stock at a price or prices established by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company or its appointee. The options granted in 2002, 2001 and 2000 vest in varying amounts over periods ranging from three to five years.
Effective December 9, 1998, a non-employee directors' option plan was approved. During the year ended December 31, 1999 our Company's three non-employee directors were granted options to purchase 15,000 shares each at $5.75, vesting quarterly in 1999, representing the then market value of the common stock. Under the plan, beginning January 1, 2000, each non-employee director will be granted options to purchase 12,500 shares on January 1 of each year they continue to serve. The options will be granted at the then market value of the common stock and will vest quarterly. The options granted on January 1, 2002 were granted at $0.86 per share. In connection with the implementation of this plan, all non-employee directors forfeited all of their existing options which had not vested as of December 31, 1998.

We granted a total of 82,590 stock warrants with an exercise price of $13.50 to an investment banker for service rendered in connection with our public offering. These warrants are outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2002. The fair value of these stock warrants granted in 1997 was estimated on the date of grant to be approximately $161 using the Black-Scholes option- pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected term of 2.5 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.00%; an expected stock price volatility of 40.55%; and a risk-free interest rate of 5.84%.
In November 2000, we entered into a contract for consulting and investor relations. As part of the consideration for these services, we granted 15,000 stock warrants with an exercise price of $4.00 per share. These warrants are outstanding and exercisable as of December 31, 2002.

Effective as of October 2001, we entered into agreements with the former owners of Mountain and Texcel in connection with restructuring the repayment terms of the debt obligations payable by the Company to such persons. In connection with such agreements, we have agreed to issue warrants to purchase, for $1.09 per share, an aggregate of 117,800 and 86,680 shares of our Company's Common Stock to the former owners of Mountain and Texcel, respectively. The fair value of these warrants was estimated on the date of grant to be $99,000 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected term of 4 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.00%; an expected stock price volatility of 60.26%; and a risk-free interest rate of 5.10%.
In November 2001, we entered into an agreement with Roth Capital Partners, LLC, , pursuant to which Roth Capital Partners, LLC, has committed to provide certain investment banking services for the benefit of the Company.

In October 2002, in connection with a guarantee of a part of our obligation to GE, we granted warrants to purchase 2,700,000 shares of our common stock to J. Michael Moore, our Chairman and Chief Executive, at exercise prices ranging from $0.13 to $0.19 per share. The fair value of these warrants was estimated on the date of grant to be $110,000 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected term of 2 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.00%; an expected stock price volatility of 84.08%; and a risk-free interest rate of 3.00%.
In December 2002, in connection with the completion of the refinancing of the GE Facility, we granted warrants to purchase 300,000 shares of our common stock to a consultant, at exercise price of $0.30 per share. The fair value of these warrants was estimated on the date of grant to be $35,000 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected term of 2 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.00%; an expected stock price volatility of 119.74%; and a risk-free interest rate of 3.00%.
Effective December 31, 2002, in connection with the restructuring of obligations, we granted warrants to purchase 13,320 shares to the former owners of Texcel at an exercise price of $.27 per share. Contemporaneously, the exercise price of the 86,680 warrants held by these persons prior to 2003, was adjusted to $.27 per share. The fair value of these warrants was estimated on the date of grant to be immaterial to the financial statements and was determined using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following assumptions: an expected term of 2 years; an expected dividend yield of 0.00%; an expected stock price volatility of 119.74%; and a risk-free interest rate of 3.00%.
9. Share Repurchase Program
In 2001 and 2000, pursuant to share repurchase programs authorized by the Board of Directors, as a result of market conditions, we reacquired approximately 7,000, and 29,000 shares, respectively at an aggregate cost of approximately $25,000 and $83,000, respectively. In 2002, in connection with the sale of Mountain, we purchased 77,000 shares for approximately $8,000 from the former owners of Mountain.

We have a federal net operating loss carryforward of approximately $7.0 million as of December 31, 2002, which, if unused, expires in 2022. We have a various state net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $9.6 million as of December 31, 2002, which, if unused, expire in varying amounts over the next 20 years.
As of December 31, 2002, because of the factors discussed in Footnote No. 2, "Liquidity and Management Plans," we recorded a $2.6 million valuation allowance against the entire amount of the net deferred tax benefit in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."
11. Concentration of Credit Risk
We maintain cash on deposit in interest bearing accounts, which, at times, exceed federally insured limits. We have not experienced any losses on such accounts and believe we are not exposed to any significant credit risk on cash and cash equivalents.
Net service revenues from one customer represented approximately 23% of total staffing services revenues in 2002. Net service revenues from another customer represented approximately 13% and 12% of total staffing services revenues in 2001 and 200, respectively. Accounts receivable from one customer represented approximately 14% of total accounts receivable at December 31, 2002. Accounts receivable from two customers represented approximately 17% and 11%, respectively, of total accounts receivable at December 31, 2001.
12. Related Party Transactions
On April 21, 2002, we entered into an agreement with our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, J. Michael Moore, ("Mr. Moore") and with DCRI L.P. No. 2, Inc., a Texas corporation ("LP No. 2") which is controlled by Mr. Moore, pursuant to which Moore and LP No. 2 both executed promissory notes to the Company in the amount of $105,000 and $289,000 respectively. Such notes relate to advances previously made by the Company in 2001, 2000 and 1999 in the amounts if $0, $345,000 and $72,000 respectively. These notes bear interest at prime plus 0.125% The majority of these advances amounts were related to litigation associated with a lawsuit with Ditto Properties Company. The Moore note is secured by a first lien on twenty five thousand shares of our common stock and shares of common stock in a private corporation in which Mr. Moore is a large shareholder and a director. The LP No. 2 note is secured by the personal guarantee of Mr. Moore and involves the commitment of LP No. 2 to deliver t o the Company a lien on four hundred forty six thousand shares of our common stock at such time as such shares have become unencumbered by other liens. At this time, these shares are encumbered by secured liens of two banks which have made loans to LP No. 2 which Mr. Moore has also personally guaranteed. Prior to the Company entering into the April 21, 2002 agreement, the Company had a second lien on such shares and Mr. Moore had an agreement with the Company whereby he would repay us the amount of the advances made to LP No. 2 and interest. The aggregate principal balance of the bank loans to LP No. 2 exceeded the market value of the shares of stock pledged to secure such loans. In addition, as discussed more fully in footnote No. 2, "Liquidity and Management Plans," the shares of stock pledged by Mr. Moore against the Moore note are also pledged by Mr. Moore for a note purchase agreement with Compass Bank. We believe, based upon financial information provided by Mr. Moore, that Mr. Moore has the available resources to satisfy the obligations to us.
As of April 21, 2002, Mr. Moore and LP No. 2 were current with the repayment provisions of their agreements with us related to the loans made to Mr. Moore and LP No. 2. In addition, pursuant to the aforesaid agreements, Mr. Moore and LP No. 2 are to pay the Company interest quarterly and at least $50,000 in principal each March 31 beginning in 2003. The $50,000 principal payment for 2001 was paid in March 2002 and the due date for the principal payment for 2002 was extended until September 2003.
In January 1999, we entered into (a) a note purchase agreement (the "Agreement") with Compass Bank (the "Bank"), and DCRI LP No. 2, Inc., a Texas corporation (the "Borrower"), which is principally owned by Mr. Moore, pursuant to which we agreed to purchase from the Bank, in the event of a default by the Borrower and Mr. Moore (as guarantor), the following: (i) two promissory notes (collectively the "Notes") executed by the Borrower payable to the Bank in the principal amount of $500,000 and (ii) all instruments collateralizing repayment of the Notes, including without limitation, a pledge agreement related to 168,500 shares of our common stock which are owned by the Borrower as collateral for the Notes, and (b) a bank transaction agreement (the "Related Agreement") with the Borrower and Mr. Moore, which obligated the Borrower and/ or Mr. Moore to (i) pledge to our Company an additional 50,000 shares (subsequently reduced to 25,000 shares) of the common stock to collateralize our Compan y under the terms of both the Agreement and the Related Agreement, (ii) pay our Company for entering into the Agreement by conveying to our Company 5,000 shares of common stock which are owned by the Borrower, and (iii) waive the right of Mr. Moore to exercise options to purchase, at $2.50 per share, 5,000 shares of common stock pursuant to options previously granted to Mr. Moore by our Company. See Footnote No. 2, "Liquidity and Management Plans" for the current status of these Notes. The proceeds from the loans evidenced by the Notes have been partially advanced by the Bank and have been used in part to fund Mr. Moore's purchase, at $2.50 per share (for an aggregate amount of $181,000), of 72,500 shares of common stock pursuant to exercising stock options previously granted to him by our Company. The aforementioned transactions have been approved by both the Board of Directors and the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of our Company. In connection with the exercise of the options, we loaned Mr. Moo re approximately $23,000 to cover his income tax liability associated with this transaction. Such amounts are classified as receivable from related parties and have been deducted from stockholders' equity.
Pursuant Technologies Inc., previously More-O Corporation ("Pursuant"), of which Mr. Moore and Samuel E. Hunter, a director of our Company, are minority shareholders and directors, paid us $20,000 for the sub-lease of office space in 2000. In addition, in 2002 and 2001, we paid to Pursuant, $95,000 and $92,000, respectively, for web site development and Pursuant front office software user license fees.
On July 17, 1998, M. Ted Dillard ("Mr. Dillard"), our Company's President until March 14, 2001, exercised options to purchase 84,000 shares of our Company's common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $257,000. The purchase price was paid with 7,500 shares (acquired in 1997) of our common stock valued at $90,000 (based upon the closing price of our common stock on July 16, 1998), and the remainder was paid in cash. In connection with this transaction we loaned Mr. Dillard approximately $149,000, which was subsequently reduced to approximately $90,000 (the "Tax Loan") to cover his income tax liability associated with the transaction. The Tax Loan bears interest at the applicable federal rate, the interest is payable quarterly, is collateralized by 20,000 shares of our common stock and is due July 17, 2003. In addition, on October 12, 1998, our Board of Directors approved a loan to Mr. Dillard of approximately $125,000 (the "Company Loan"). The Company Loan bears interest at 8 %, which interest is payable quarterly, is collateralized by 43,400 shares of our common stock and is due July 17, 2003. The Tax Loan and the Company loan are classified as receivables from related party in our consolidated balance sheet and have been deducted from stockholders' equity.
Interest income from related parties amounted to approximately $20,000, $48,000 and $18,000 in fiscal 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
13. Employee Benefit Plan
In 1993, we implemented a 401(K) plan for the benefit of its employees. Company contributions to the plan in 2002, 2001 and 2000 totaled approximately $67,000, $113,000 and $119,000 respectively. Beginning in January 1998 our matching contributions are used to purchase our common stock. In March 2002, the Company amended the plan to permit participants in the plan to have the right, at any time or times, to request that the plan sell all or any of the shares of DCRI stock which have been allocated to such participant.
14. Commitments and Contingencies
Operating and Capital Leases
We rent office space under various operating leases. We also lease certain furniture and equipment under capital leases. Certain of the operating leases have escalating rent payments. We are liable for the future minimum lease payments for the periods subsequent to December 31, 2001 as follows:

Rent expense was approximately $1,781,000, $2,495,000 and $2,368,000 for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
In 1996, a lawsuit was filed by Ditto Properties Company ("DPC") against DCRI L.P. No. 2 ("L.P. No. 2"), which is controlled by Mr. Moore. Mr. Moore and the Company were also initially named as garnishees in the lawsuit (the "Ditto Litigation") with respect to 899,200 shares (the " LP Shares") of common stock (the "Common Stock") of the Company which were the subject matter of a series of transactions in 1993 (collectively referred to herein as the "1993 Transactions") which ultimately resulted in the LP Shares being conveyed by DPC to L.P. No. 2. Subsequent to the initial filing of the litigation by DPC, Mr. Moore was added as a defendant in such proceedings, and F. Scott Otey ("Otey") and Jeffery Loadman ("Loadman") intervened as parties to the litigation involved (herein referred to as the "Ditto Litigation").
On April 12, 2001, DPC and Donald R. Ditto Sr. ("Ditto") filed an amended petition in the Ditto Litigation and specifically named the Company as a defendant in such lawsuit. The venue for the Ditto Litigation is the District Court of Dallas County, Texas, 298th Judicial District (the "Court").
In the Ditto Litigation, DPC, Ditto, Otey and Loadman are seeking, among other things, each of the following: (a) a rescission of the 1993 Transactions thereby entitling DPC to title, ownership and possession of the LP Shares, (b) the imposition of a constructive trust upon the LP Shares for the benefit of DPC, (c) a declaratory judgement declaring, among other things, (i) that DPC is entitled to title, ownership and possession in and to the LP Shares and to 0.25 shares of common stock of L.P. No. 2 (the "Collateral Shares"), and (ii) that any transfers of the LP Shares by L.P. No. 2 was improper and void ab initio, (d) a judicial foreclosure order transferring ownership of the LP Shares and the Collateral Shares to DPC, (e) garnishment of the LP Shares and the Collateral Shares, (f) a temporary restraining order and permanent injunction related to the LP Shares and the Collateral Shares, (g) an accounting with respect to the LP Shares, and (h) damages as below summarized based upon numerous claims in cluding breach of contract, tortious interference with contractual relations, breach of fiduciary duty, statutory fraud, common law fraud and fraud in the inducement. In connection with these claims, DPC, Ditto, Otey and Loadman contend, among other things, that (i) the Company, Mr. Moore, L.P. No. 2, U.S.F.G./DHRG L.P. No. 1, a partnership that previously owned the LP Shares and that is a party to the Ditto Litigation (the "Partnership"), and others committed acts constituting fraud upon DPC, Ditto, Otey and Loadman, in connection with the LP Shares, the 1993 Transactions, and in other respects, and (ii) DPC, Ditto, Otey and Loadman are entitled to recover from the Company, Mr. Moore, L.P. No. 2, and the Partnership, jointly and severally, compensatory damages in the amount of at least $6.5 million punitive and exemplary damages totaling at least $26.1 million interest on the amount of damages incurred, legal fees and attorney fees.
In connection with the Ditto Litigation, the following actions have occurred: (a) on October 24, 1996, certain of the parties to the Ditto Litigation entered into an Agreed Temporary Order pursuant to which L.P. No. 2 agreed to deliver to a Special Master, to be designated pursuant to the Agreed Temporary Order, the LP Shares or $1.5 million in cash (the "Cash Escrow Amount"), (b) in October, 1996, the Company, L.P. No. 2 and Mr. Moore filed a lawsuit against DPC and Ditto seeking damages and reimbursement of expenses alleging, among other things, that DPC and Ditto interfered with Company transactions and proposed financing resulting in lost opportunities, lost profits and significant damages, (c) Ditto has previously filed a third lawsuit against Moore and one of the entities controlled by Moore in connection with certain oil and gas activities involving the parties to the litigation, (d) ultimately all of the foregoing lawsuits were combined into one proceeding in the Court), (e) on June 25, 1997, the Court granted a summary judgment to L.P. No. 2 with respect to the claim that DPC is entitled to a rescission of the 1993 Transactions, (f) in July, 1997 L.P. No. 2 delivered to the Special Master the Cash Escrow Amount, (g) subsequent to June, 1997, certain of the LP Shares have been sold by or for the benefit of L.P. No. 2 (h) all of the LP Shares owned by L.P. No. 2 have been pledged to secure indebtedness obligations of L.P. No. 2, including indebtedness owed to the Company, and (i) pursuant to agreements involving L.P. No. 2 and DPC, the Cash Escrow Amount has been reduced from the original amount of $1.5 million to approximately $0.6 million.
In the past, the Company has incurred legal fees on its own behalf and has funded certain of the legal fees and expenses of Mr. Moore and/or L.P. No. 2 in connection with the Ditto Litigation. As the result of the Company being named as a defendant in such case, in 2001 the Company, Mr. Moore and L.P. No. 2 decided that the Company should have separate counsel from Mr. Moore and L.P. No. 2. The Board of Directors of the Company (a) approved the payment to Mr. Moore of up to $250,000 to fund legal fees and expenses anticipated to be incurred by Mr. Moore, L.P. No. 2 and No. 1 in the Ditto Litigation, (b) authorized the Company to enter into an Indemnification Agreement with each of the officers and directors of the Company pursuant to which these individuals will be indemnified in connection with matters related to the Ditto Litigation; the form of these Indemnification Agreements, including the Moore Indemnification Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.2 to our Form 10Q for the first quarter ended Mar ch 31, 2001 (such exhibit is hereby incorporated by reference), and (c) approved an amendment to the Bylaws of the Company to require the Company to indemnify its present and former officers and directors to the full extent permitted by the laws of the state of Texas, in connection with any litigation in which such persons became a party subsequent to March 29, 2001 and in which such persons are involved in connection with performing their duties as an officer or director of the Company. Through March 31, 2002, the Company has expended approximately $0.2 million (in connection with the aforesaid $0.25 million to be paid to or for the benefit of Mr. Moore) on behalf of Mr. Moore in the defense of the Ditto matter. Since engaging its own counsel in connection with the Ditto Litigation, the Company has paid for the legal fees and expenses of our counsel. No amount of loss reserves has been established by the Company in connection with the Ditto Litigation because management of the Company does not believe that the amount of any damage claims against the Company in connection with the Ditto Litigation should adversely impact our financial position or results of operation.
We are also involved in certain other litigation and disputes not noted. With respect to these matters, management believes the claims against us are without merit and has concluded that the ultimate resolution of such will not have a material effect on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.
15. Discontinued Operations
On December 31, 1999, our Board of Directors approved a plan whereby we would place our remaining training business assets (Train) for sale. Train has historically provided information technology training to our clients' employees and our applicant pool on a fee basis. In connection with the plan to dispose of Train, we recorded, in 1999, a loss of $589,000 (before income tax benefits of $226,000), which included a provision for estimated operating losses through the date of disposal. In 2000, we recorded an additional loss of $135 (before income tax benefits of $54,000) for additional estimated losses. The loss before income taxes for the year ended December 31, 2000 of approximately $287,000 was recorded against these estimated loss reserves.
Effective February 1, 2001, we sold the operations of Train to a company owned by the former manager of Train. The sale price is in the form of a royalty of four and one-half percent of all training services performed by such company for three years following the close. No gain or loss was recognized on the sale.
The results of operations and remaining operating assets and liabilities of GAPS and Train have been presented as discontinued operations and are summarized below:
Results of operations for discontinued operations are as follows:

17. Restructuring and Severance Expenses
On March 14, 2001, upon the resignation of our former President, Mr. Ted Dillard, the Company and Mr. Dillard entered into a Severance Agreement and Mutual Release ("Severance Agreement"). The Severance Agreement, among other things, calls for: (a) severance to Mr. Dillard of $210,000 payable in twenty-four equal semi-monthly installments beginning March 15, 2001; (b) accelerated vesting of options to purchase 5,556 shares of our Common Stock that were due to vest on March 31, 2001; (c) extension of the time that Mr. Dillard may exercise any of his vested stock options until December 31, 2002 (subject to the provisions of the plans under which such options were granted); and (d) extension of the maturity date of a loan by the Company from October 12, 2001 until July 17, 2003. The total cost of the Severance Agreement (including legal and professional fees and a $10 consulting fee paid to Samuel E. Hunter, a director of the Company) is approximately $339,000 and was expensed in the first quarter of 200 1. In addition, through March 31, 2001, we incurred approximately $100,000 in severance expenses related to a reduction in our workforce as a result of the downturn in the economy.
In addition in the fourth quarter of 2001, we recorded an accrual for an additional $50,000 in severance expenses related to another reduction in our workforce and expensed approximately $213,000 related to real estate leases in space we no longer occupy. We also incurred approximately $89,000 (including $53,000 for the value of warrants issued to Roth Capital) in legal and professional fees related to the evaluation of financing and restructuring strategies. The aggregate effect of these significant fourth quarter adjustments along with the provision for an allowance for deferred income taxes was approximately $1,100,000.
In addition in the fourth quarter of 2002, we recorded an accrual for an additional $36,000 in severance expenses related to another reduction in our workforce and expensed approximately $356,000 related to real estate leases in space we no longer occupy. We also incurred approximately $235,000 (including $145,000 for the value of warrants issued) in legal and professional fees related to the evaluation of financing and restructuring strategies. We also incurred a loss on the sale of our Mountain operations of approximately $2.0 million. The aggregate effect of these significant fourth quarter adjustments was approximately $2.6 million.

Selected Quarterly Financial Data
Our quarterly operating results have varied in the past and can be expected to vary in the future. Fluctuations in operating results generally are caused by a number of factors, including changes in our services mix, the degree to which we encounter competition in our existing or target markets, general economic conditions, the volume and timing of orders received during the period, sales and marketing expenses related to entering new markets, the timing of new services introduced by our Company or our competitors, and changes in prices for services offered by our Company or our competitors.
The following table presents selected quarterly financial information for the periods indicated. This information has been derived from unaudited consolidated financial statements, which, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of such information. These operating results are not necessarily indicative of results for any future period.

Not applicable. |
PART III
The information for these items is incorporated by reference to the definitive proxy statement to be filed by our Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Exchange Act within 120 days of the close of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2002.
Item 14. |
Controls and Procedures. |
Within ninety days of the date of this Report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-14 and 15d-14 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in periodic filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
There were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these internal controls subsequent to the date of our most recent evaluation.
